Thank you so, so much for your hard work.The Drifters

Inugami Circus-dan “Truly, Truly, Thank You for Your Hard Work” (MV)
Really, really, great job, The Drifters.

Among the Drifters’ songs, this one has catchy wordplay and phrases with a brisk tempo, making it a popular track.

Many of the Drifters’ songs are arrangements of existing tunes, and perhaps they were just very good at arranging.

They were quite fond of military songs, and it’s not widely known that they have many tracks related to that genre.

Even Dorifu Daibakushō is a parody of a military song.

Even when you know it’s coming, it’s the kind of chorus that makes you want to sing.

The melody is steady and very easy to sing.

If a bold, spirited boy sings it coolly, it could really set a great vibe in the moment.

But the lyrics are actually about a heartbreaking breakup.

For the sake of the two who parted, I want to shout “Merry Christmas” at the end of the song.

HollowShiyui

Anime 'Demon King 2099' Chapter 1 Original Opening Movie [Shiyui “Hollow”]
Hollow Shiyui

This song is striking for its fiery, intense sound and deeply emotional lyrics.

Released in October 2024, it was chosen as the opening theme for the anime “Demon Lord 2099.” Shiyui’s clear, transparent vocals and Keina Suda’s delicate sound design are a perfect match.

With a cyberpunk-inspired worldview, it powerfully expresses themes of loss and salvation.

It ties in with the grand story of the anime set in a futuristic city, resulting in a track that resonates with viewers.

Listening to it when you’re feeling weighed down might give you courage.

HometigilistJohnny's WEST

Hometigirisuto, with a touch of kayōkyoku flavor, is a fun, high-energy track that’s quintessentially Johnny’s WEST, released in January 2019.

It showers praise on people who work hard every day! The members’ Kansai-dialect talk woven into the instrumental break is also absolutely top-notch! It’s highly recommended when you want to spend your time feeling happy.

Let’s all heap on the praise together!

fireflySpitz

Spitz’s classic song “Hotaru.” Although it tends to be overshadowed because they have so many big hits, this track also became a nationwide success just like their other famous songs.

As a Spitz song, the key is inevitably high, but the vocal range is set relatively narrow compared to many of their tracks.

You don’t need to mimic Spitz’s singing style—one option is to lower the key and sing with a gritty, shouted delivery like Takeshi “Pistol” Takehara.

The vocal line itself is extremely catchy, so feel free to add an arrangement that suits you.

Ho! SummerTackey & Tsubasa

Ho! Summer Tackey & Tsubasa

The idol duo Tackey & Tsubasa, who gained popularity for their outstanding looks.

Their catchy musical style and overwhelmingly good visuals are still talked about as legendary even after their breakup.

Among their songs, one I especially recommend is Ho! Summer.

It’s a track built around a guitar riff that evokes Yosui Inoue’s Yume no Naka e and a vocal line reminiscent of ZIGGY’s GLORIA, giving the whole piece a bright atmosphere that makes you feel the blue summer sky.

Takako Tate, the Jewel

It’s a ballad that makes you reflect on the meaning of life and the shape of society.

The song is by Takako Tate, a singer-songwriter from Nagano Prefecture, and it’s included on her 2004 mini-album Sora.

It was used as an insert song in the film Nobody Knows.

If you’ve seen the movie, I think it will resonate with you especially deeply.

Every single word of the lyrics is beautiful—and yet so heavy.

The more carefully you listen, the more it stirs your emotions and brings you to tears.
